Sjoerd has Chinese govt-issued journalist accreditation and a journalist visa. Chinese law protects the rights of foreign journalists invited into the country to do their job. This is lawless thuggery. But not surprising, sadly.
Feb 27: China correspondent of the largest Dutch news organization NOS Sjoerd den Daas was harassed and manhandled by plain-clothes and uniformed 🇨🇳 policemen when he was filming a group of investors protesting outside the HQ of struggling shadow bank Sichuan Trust (四川信托) in Chengdu. He and his cameraman were arrested and detained for a few hours. They were subsequently released.

After six years, I’ve left @SixthTone. Or conditions were created for me to leave after publishing a project that criticized “zero-COVID,” which landed multiple people in hot water. It’s been bittersweet leaving a place we’ve built over the years but it was time.

A deep dive w/@TomHale_ on what might have derailed Vanguard's robo-advisory JV with Ant - "In absence of geopolitical disruptions, the failures of Vanguard’s approach emphasise how ... a US success does not necessarily translate for the Chinese market."

Feel honored and grateful to be recognised by @Reuters as the Reporter of the Year. It’s especially meaningful for us Chinese journalists working in mainland where we face one of the most difficult journalism environments in the world.

A new Chinese financial watchdog will help bridge regulatory gaps, but analysts and investors say the agency will consolidate power at the top and could introduce more state and party intervention. By @xieyuxy, @Selena_Li_QW, @julie_zhuli, @carolinamandl reuters.com/world/china/chin…

Five years before Li Qiang becomes China's premier, he was already working behind the scene to push for a bold revamp of Shanghai's sclertic stock market, bypassing CSRC.
